I’ll give faltine and Silas a pass tonight. Cold as fuck, maybe a little moisture, 5 games in 6 days and we’ve won big all 5 games. Easy to come out flat on a day like today. And everyone has bad games

Of course that error came back to bite us, but he and Silas will be locked in when it matters

The weather won't be any better this weekend against 'Bama.  They need to get the fuck over it.

The field turf should help. And like I said up above, they may just be a tad worn out and flat today and probably figured they could half ass and win this easily. We’ll wake up and win this game . Then this weekend, they’ll be focused and locked in

Also, anyone else think Daly should be in the 3hole with Ivan as the clean up? Hodo is looking like a natural lead off man, Kennedy is looking like he’s gonna have a hell of a season, or at the very least get on base a lot. Daly is one of our better bunters and contact hitter. 3 straight fast, disciplined in the box, contact hitters then let Ivan clean up

Yep, flip Daly and Melendez.

In fact, I thought the lineup was in error the first Rice game when they showed in on LHN.

Not a fan of Ivan in 3rd spot -- need a hitter that doesn't strike out...

Faltine looks like he’s wanting to walk instead of wanting to go up there and swing it

Faltine needs to shorten his swing and reduce the number of strikeouts.  More contact to improve chances of getting on base...

Exactly. Why Daly hitting 3rd who can bunt and pretty much always makes contact is ideal. Hodo is gonna have an .840 or so ops, any ball Kennedy hits on the ground has a very chance to be a hit or an error by a rushing shortstop. His ops should be at least .790 or so. So yeah an ocean of options with that top of the order with maybe the best power hitter in college baseball hitting 4th. My ideal 5-9 would be something like Todd-Messinger/Stehly-silas-Campbell-faltine
